The Loyola Maroon Vol. XXXI, X-259 Loyola University, New Orleans, La., October 9, 1953 No. 4 Five-Year Course Set In Pharmacy Beginning with the 1954 fall semester, Loyola will change from a four-year to a five-year program for a degree in pharmacy, according to Dr. Edward J. Ireland, professor of pharmacognosy and pharmacology. One of the South's leading toxicologists, Dr. Ireland made the announcement to a joint-meeting last night of the Louisiana State Pharmaceutical Association and the student branch of the American Pharmaceutical Association. I The reason for this change of program, Dr. Ireland added, is that the National Association of the Board of Pharmacy recently passed a resolution calling for an over-all program of five years as a minimum of collegiate training for degrees in pharmacy for those enrolling in colleges of pharmacy on and after July 1, 1957. Loyola become* the 19th college or school of pharmacy in the nation to adopt the fiveyear program which beat the national deadline by three year*. Even though pharmacy students will go to college a year longer, they will benefit from the new program by carrying fewer hours each semester. This will enable them to do better outside work and library assignments, Dr. Ireland said. The new course includes practical experience in local drugstores and allows 17 semester hours as maximum for each student. Under the four-year program students were required to carry as many as 23 semester hours. Dr. Ireland emphasized that the new program does not have any effect on present students, including freshmen who enrolled in the college of pharmacy this year. He added that the new program is rery advantageou* to ■tudent* with other degree* who want to enter pharmacy because under the five-year plan they will have to complete only three year*' work in*tead of four. Their previou* college work will give them two year* ARRANGING A LIBRARY DISPLAY on coal and coal products for National Pharmacy Week are (bottom) MINUS MOUTON and FRED SHIEL, chairman of the Pharmacy Week observance on the campus.

The appointment became effective October 1. Miss Claudine McKay has been placed in charge of the first floor. Miss Vogt, who holds an AB degree from the joint Ursuline- Loyola program in 1938, was librarian at Ursuline before her appointment here. This past summer she studied at LSU.

A history professor at the University of Pennsylvania since 1920, Dr. Nichols has also been visiting professor of history at Columbia, Rutgers, Stanford and other universities. In 1949, he was called to Cambridge University, England for a year as American lecturer on the history of the United States.

University's lOC To Hold First Meeting Representatives from each campus organization are obliged to attend the initial semester meeting of the Inter - Organizational Council which will be held Wednesday, at 6:30 p.m. in Marquette Auditorium. If the president of the organization cannot attend, or if some student is president of more than one organization, he must appoint another delegate to represent that organization which is without representation, Moon Landrieu, president of the lOC, announced. Failure of any organization to be represented will be interpreted as a desire on the part of the group to discontinue as a student organisation at Loyola, he added. The Inter-organizational Council furnishes a means of expression for student organizations regarding school activities and acts as a liaison between them and the Student Council. Immediately following the meeting Mr. Dave McWhirter, national president of the National Federation of Catholic College Students, will speak on the aims and purposes of the Federation. The general student bodies of Loyola, Dominican and Xavier as well as -lOC delegates are invited.

LSL-APO United Fund Drive Begins On Campus Monday "Give And Let Live" will be the theme as the United Fund kicks off its 1953 drive at Loyola Monday. The campus drive will be sponsored by Alpha Pi Omicron and Lambda Sigma Lambda, according to Henry W. Asher, Jr., chairman. The Fund is an association of the Red Cross, Boy Scouts, Community Chest, Heart Association, Cancer Society, U. 5.0., and Cerebral Palsy charities, and is designed to make giving "Once and for All" easier. Loyolani will be ailced to contribute toward the $2,655,000 quota let for Orleans, Jefferson, and St. Bernard Parishes this year. The drive will mark the second time the University has joined the campaign. "Last year's campus drive was a great success, and we hope to make this one even better," Asher said. He encouraged students to "dig deep", in an effort to surpass the quota set for Loyola this year. Co-chairmen were named by Asher as Dan Stapp, APO president, and Betty Talbot, president of LSL. Father Mullahy Urges Entries For Fulbrights Deadline for applications for Fulbright Scholarships, will be October 15, according to the £ev. John H. Mullahy, S.J., associate professor of biology. He urges all interested members of the students and faculty to apply immediately. According to Father Mullahy, to be eligible, one need only "have completed requirements for a bachelor degree. He must have at least a B average, and be a good representative of his country from a cultural, social, and educational standpoint." The scholarship, which was originated to exchange the persons of different countries under graduate and post graduate level, has as its chief purpose to encourage, support, promote, engender, increase, and augment goodwill between the peoples of the countries concerned, brought about chiefly by academic means, he said. There are separate competitions for various academic levels. For example for those who have received or are about to receive bachelor degrees, for those on a master's level, doctorate level, and there is also one for an exchange of lecturers and post-grad research workers. The awards include transportation, tuition and maintenance, and in some cases incidental expenses provided by the host government. There will be a special summer program for which applications will be opened in the spring. This will enable students to make use of the act during the three summer months. Vets' Club Schedules Elections Thursday The Vet's Club will meet next Thursday to elect officers for the coming year. Joe Nielsen, Milton Aucoin, and Henry Hautot will run on one ticket against Louis Casbonne, Charlie Fuss and Harold Quinlivan.In the future meetings will be held on the third Thursday of every month in the Student Lounge at 8 p.m. SGT. TYNDALE GETS 99 CENT AUTO "You can't convince me that a dollar doesn't go a long way now-a-days. I think inflation is over." So thought M/ Sgt. "Marty" Tyndale, ROTC staffer, as he viewed his 1949 Dodge sedan, for which he paid—hold your hats— 99 CENTS. Hard to believe? It was for Sgt. Tyndale. The popular MS&T instructor is still trying to get over the shock. He won the car in a local auto dealer's contest which offered a "Car for 99 cents to whomever needs it most." Letters poured in for the Sarge, and to good avail. Sgt. Tyndale's story merited the car. Two years ago, his 12-year-old son lost a leg in a train accident. In the same year his three-year-old daughter contracted polio. Tough facts to face on a Sergeant's salary. He came to Loyola in September, 1949, and he's the only one left in ROTC who can say 'The seniors knew me when they were freshmen." "I'd sure like to thank the Cadets who wrote letters for me," he said. "I don't know who they are, but I really appreciate it." (See PHARMACY, page 4)
